Kuwait announced on Tuesday that 29 people, most of the residents of this Gulf Arab country, will face trial for last month's suicide bombing of a Shiite mosque that was claimed by the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham (ISIS). The Kuwait News Agency reported that those facing trial include seven Kuwaitis and 13 "illegal residents," a reference to Kuwait's "bedoon" community that is made up largely of desert nomads considered stateless by the government. Also facing trial are five Saudis, three Pakistanis and a fugitive whose nationality is not yet known.
